Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
On March 28, 2019, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) amended the Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Long Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).  The Plan was amended to change the definition of “retirement” to mean a separation from service by a grantee who is an employee (i) on or after attainment of age 60 with at least 10 years of service with the Company or (ii) on or after attainment of age 65.  In addition, the vesting provisions with respect to restricted stock upon termination of employment or service as a director were modified to provide for the acceleration of vesting upon termination without cause, resignation for good reason or retirement, in addition to death or disability (as previously provided under the Plan). Certain technical and clarifying changes were also made to the Plan.
 
The foregoing is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
